Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for measuring the injection quantity of injection systems, in particular for testing the function of common rail injectors, comprising a measuring chamber formed by a measuring piston and cylinder housing arrangement, to which the injection system can be coupled in a pressure-tight manner using coupling means via a contact pressure, in order to the test oil quantity injected by the injection system into the test oil-filled measuring chamber, so that the measuring piston, which is subjected to a restoring force, performs a measuring stroke that can be detected by sensor means, the coupling means comprising an adapter unit with an adapter volume arranged between the injection system and the measuring chamber.
- the field of application of the present invention extends primarily to motor vehicle technology.
- the injection quantity indicators (EMI) of interest are used to carry out a highly precise quantity measurement.
- the EMI measurement principle is based on the piston displacement principle. An injected quantity of test oil, which is usually distributed over several partial injections per injection cycle, is injected into the measuring chamber, which is also filled with test oil, and displaces the movable measuring piston, which is equipped with a restoring force.
- the resulting piston stroke is recorded by sensors and represents a measure for the injection quantity m (p, x), which can be calculated from the following general formula: This also shows that the test oil density depends on the changing test oil temperature T and the pressure p in the measuring chamber, the piston stroke x and the piston area Ai ⁇ oiben.
- a leak between the injection system to be measured, preferably the injector, and the measuring device must be ruled out.
- the present invention is dedicated to this topic.
- DE 100 63 713 A1 discloses a generic device for measuring the injection quantity of injection systems. This comprises a measuring chamber, coupling means by which at least one injection system can be coupled to the measuring chamber in a pressure-tight manner, and a piston which is slidably held in a housing-like guide device and delimits the measuring chamber.
- a sensor detects a displacement of the piston, from which the injection quantity is determined in the manner explained above.
- the coupling means generate a contact pressure force of the injection system on a corresponding adapter unit of the measuring device.
- the volume of the adapter unit depending on the ratio of the nozzle flow of the injection system and the flow-dynamic components of the measuring device, there is an increase in pressure, which counteracts the contact pressure on the cross-sectional area of the injection system at the adapter inlet.
- the entire system is only free of leakage if this injection-related recoil force is always smaller than the contact pressure.
- the invention includes the technical teaching that the adapter volume of the adapter unit is connected to an additional pressure damping unit in order to reduce an injection-related pressure increase in the adapter volume.
- the advantage of the solution according to the invention lies in particular in the fact that conventional measuring devices can easily be expanded to include the pressure damping unit according to the invention.
- the The pressure damping unit specifically prevents a sharp increase in pressure in the adapter volume, which can occur with large injection rates, and thus prevents dynamic pressures above 90 bara from occurring.
- the solution according to the invention consists in a technical expansion of the measuring device by a pressure damping unit, which is arranged on the adapter unit and is connected to the adapter volume via a connecting channel.
- a pressure damping unit suitable for the application according to the invention is preferably designed as a spring-loaded piston-cylinder unit.
- the pressure damping unit has a cylinder housing with a damper piston that can be moved axially and is dynamically sealed relative to the inner wall of the cylinder and that interacts with an integrated return spring to prestress the damper piston against the compressive force resulting from the adapter volume.
- the biasing force of the restoring spring is preferably dimensioned in such a way that the volume for pressure reduction is 0 at low injection rates.
- the measuring device remains unaffected in its previous function as long as the pressure in the adapter volume is less than the quotient of the spring force of the return spring and the piston area of the damper piston.
- the biasing force of the return spring is designed to be adjustable. This can be realized, for example, by an adjusting screw acting on the return spring, which increases the prestressing force by compressing the return spring and reduces the prestressing force by relieving the return spring.
- the pressure damping unit is preferably connected to the adapter volume via a connecting channel formed in the adapter unit transversely to the longitudinal direction of the injection system in the wall of the adapter unit. This allows the additional pressure damping unit to be attached to the measuring device in a space-saving manner.
- the measuring device according to the invention is preferably equipped with an inductive displacement measuring device, which implements a robust and precise length measurement.
- the measuring device can be provided with a temperature sensor and/or pressure sensor for measuring the temperature or the pressure of the test oil located in the measuring chamber in order to ensure an exact measurement value determination within the framework of the thermodynamic relationships discussed at the outset.
- the measuring device manages with a contact pressure between the injection system and the adapter unit, which is preferably in the range between 1200 N and 2600 N, which can be applied, for example, by a hydraulic pressing device.
- the injection system is statically sealed from the adapter unit by a flat seal or a compression ring seal in order to avoid leaks in this pressure area.
- a spray damper throttle is arranged in the transition area between the adapter unit and the measuring chamber. Due to the outflow of the test oil from the adapter chamber into the measuring chamber via this spray damper throttle, the adapter pressure falls below the maximum adapter pressure when the injection rate of the injection system is reduced towards the end of the spray, which means that the damper piston in the pressure damping unit is pushed back again by the spring preload and the volume reduces the pressure goes back to 0, so that the quantity measurement of the measuring device is not affected. This is ensured by the fact that the maximum adapter pressure as the quotient of spring force divided by the area of the damper piston is significantly greater than the base pressure in the measuring chamber, which is defined by the back pressure of the measuring piston.
- the effect of the solution according to the invention is expressed in that at high injection rates above a specific adapter pressure, a piston movement of the damper piston of the pressure damping unit starts, which increases the adapter volume by the volume of the pressure damping unit and thus reduces the excess pressure and limits the pressure in the adapter volume to a maximum adapter pressure.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of a test system, consisting of a measuring device and an injection system, and
- FIG. 2 shows a graphic representation of the influence of the pressure damping unit on the piston pressure of the measuring piston.
- a device for measuring the injection quantity of an injection system 1 which is designed here as a common rail injector by way of example, consists essentially of a cylinder housing 2, which in cooperation with a measuring piston 3 arranged in it in an axially displaceable manner delimits a measuring chamber 4.
- the measuring piston 3 is subjected to a defined restoring pressure via a restoring chamber 5 arranged opposite the measuring chamber 4 .
- Sensor means 6 in the form of an inductive path measuring device are provided for detecting the measuring stroke x of the measuring piston 3 .
- a temperature sensor 7 and a pressure sensor 8 are provided for measuring the temperature or the pressure of the test oil located in the measuring chamber 3 .
- the measured values recorded by the sensors go to a - not shown - Evaluation unit for calculating the injection quantity through the well-known physical relationships.
- the injection system 1 is connected to the measuring chamber 4 filled with test oil by means of an adapter unit 9 .
- a spray damper throttle 10 is arranged in the transition area between the adapter unit 9 and the measuring chamber 4 .
- a flat seal 11 arranged in between is provided for static sealing.
- the injection system 1 is subjected to a contact pressure F pre ss in the direction of the measuring device, which is dimensioned so large that the test setup does not leak even when testing is carried out with high injection rates.
- the pressure damping unit 13 serves to reduce excess pressure increases in the adapter volume V a caused by injection.
- the pressure damping unit 13 designed as a spring-returned piston-cylinder unit consists of a cylinder housing 14 in which a damper piston 15 is arranged such that it can be displaced axially and is dynamically sealed relative to the cylinder inner wall.
- the damper piston 15 is acted upon by an integrated return spring 16 to prestress the damper piston 15 .
- the pretensioning force F spring of the return spring 16 is dimensioned in such a way that at low injection rates the volume V of the pressure damper remains 0 for pressure reduction and only at such high injection rates that cause a back pressure >90 bara in the adapter volume V a does the pressure damping unit 13 become active, as a result of which the resulting pressure peak is absorbed.
- FIG. 2 the influence of the pressure damping unit 13 described above on the measuring stroke x of the measuring piston 3 is illustrated.
- the damper piston movement begins, there is a slight discernible increase.
- the damping force exerted by the restoring spring 16 increases, this change in the increase in the piston stroke takes place later or not at all in the case of small injection rates, so that measurements with small injection rates remain unaffected.
- the graphic representation also shows that in the area of the quantity measurement window marked by the dashed box, the measurement stroke x reaches the same value for measurements with a damping unit as for measurements without a damping unit, and the piston vibrations of the measuring piston in both measurements have the same magnitude in the measurement window have, so that there is no impairment of the quantity measurement.
